supmah5 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Hi. I'm new to AutoIT and am trying to write a script that lets me make a booking on my gym's website. See printscreen below. I want my program to click the name of the day that is set in the script-code. I can make the program click on the menu to the left using this code: _IELinkClickByText ($oIE, "Boka gruppaktivitet")The problem is that the IELinkClickByText method doesn't work since the names of the weekdays are in a form (dateForm)...How do I get the program to click on for example "onsdag"? Further down I included the source code from the website, if it might be of interest. Here is the source code from the website:<form id="showGroupActivitiesDateForm" name="dateForm" action="showGroupActivities.action" method="POST" > <table class="wwFormTable"> <tr> <td>Välj dag:</td> <td valign="center" align="left"> <a href="javascript:change('2010-12-28')" onclick="document.getElementById('showRange').checked=false; change('date', '2010-12-28'); return false;"/> idag</a> <a href="javascript:change('2010-12-29')" onclick="document.getElementById('showRange').checked=false; change('date', '2010-12-29'); return false;"/> onsdag</a> <a href="javascript:change('2010-12-30')" onclick="document.getElementById('showRange').checked=false; change('date', '2010-12-30'); return false;"/> torsdag</a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsaltyDS Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 The " " non-breaking space may be keeping the text from matching. You could get the collection of links and then loop through them using StringInStr() to find it instead. #include <IE.au3> ; ... get ref to $oIE $oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "showGroupActivitiesDateForm") $colLinks = _IELinkGetCollection($oForm) For $oLink In $colLinks If StringInStr($oLink.innerText, "onsdag") Then _IEAction($oLink, "Click") MsgBox(64, "Clicked", "Clicked link") EndIf Next Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...

DaleHohm Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 You don't show the HTML source for the link you wanted to click on... _IELinkClickByText uses the .innertext property that translates nbsp into a space, so you should be able to do it without the loop. Guessing from the other links, it may be this however: _IELinkClickByText ($oIE, " Boka gruppaktivitet") Dale Free Internet Tools: DebugBar, AutoIt IE Builder, HTTP UDF, MODIV2, IE Developer Toolbar, IEDocMon, Fiddler, HTML Validator, WGet, curl MSDN docs: InternetExplorer Object, Document Object, Overviews and Tutorials, DHTML Objects, DHTML Events, WinHttpRequest, XmlHttpRequest, Cross-Frame Scripting, Office object model Automate input type=file (Related) Alternative to _IECreateEmbedded? better: _IECreatePseudoEmbedded Better Better?

Guessing from the other links, it may be this however:_IELinkClickByText ($oIE, " Boka gruppaktivitet")I'm able to click the "Boka gruppaktivitet"-link. The problem for me is that next I want to click "Wednesday", but sadly that's not a link like the one to the left. "Boka gruppaktivitet" is a menuitem, and Wednesday is not a menuitem...I'll try your solution PsaltyDS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
